$Na^+$ flows in the direction of the sugar

(A) The transport of sugar (like glucose) across the cell membrane often occurs via secondary active transport,specifically through $Na^+$-glucose symporters.In this mechanism,$Na^+$ ions move down their electrochemical gradient into the cell,and this energy is used to transport sugar molecules into the cell in the same direction.Therefore,$Na^+$ flows in the direction of the sugar.
